Next Hydrogen successfully delivers an advanced water electrolyzer module to Hyundai Motor Company.
Next Hydrogen Solutions Inc. (the “Company” or “Next Hydrogen“) (TSXV:NXH, OTC:NXHSF), a designer and manufacturer of electrolyzers, announce that it has delivered to Hyundai Motor Company (“Hyundai Motor”) a proof of concept alkaline electrolyzer module incorporating Hyundai Motor cell components.
Raveel Afzaal, President and CEO of Next Hydrogen, said:
We are extremely pleased with the successful outcome of this project with Hyundai Motor and Kia Corporation.
“Combining Hyundai Motor and Kia’s state-of-the-art cell component technology with our innovative cell design architecture has demonstrated significant potential to improve the known performance of alkaline water electrolyzers and to produce green hydrogen economically.”
“The team at Next Hydrogen is looking forward to next steps and potential commercial arrangements in the future.”
Hyundai Motor, Kia Corporation (“Kia”) and Next Hydrogen signed a memorandum of understanding in July 2021 to advance electrolyzer module-related technologies that are at the core of the alkaline water electrolysis system to reduce the cost of building the system and maintaining/operating the system.
The pilot test demonstrated the ability to operate at significantly higher current densities and temperature compared to traditional alkaline electrolyzers which provides a pathway to cost-effective green hydrogen production.
